In nineteenth-century France, medicine reigned as queen of the sciences. From Balzac to Gautier, through to Flaubert and Zola, physicians featured prominently in the novels of the time. Whether Bianchon or Cherbonneau, Bovary or Pascal, these fictional portrayals embodied the ambivalence surrounding the figure of the physician, whose analytical power rivaled that of the novelist.
